Ingredients

  • 1 pkg frozen puff pastry; thawed
  • 1 pkg instant vanilla pudding
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 1 12 oz container whipped topping; thawed
  • 1/2 cup chocolate syrup

Preparation

Step 1

Unfold puff pastry and place each sheet on a baking sheet. Bake according to pkg directions until golden brown. Allow pastry to cool.

In a large bowl, whisk the pudding mix and milk until thickened. Stir 1/2 of whipped cream until thoroghly mixed.

Break the cooled pastry into large pieces and place 1/3 of them in the bottom of a large bowl or trifle dish. Spoon half of pudding mix over that and drizzle with 1/3 of chocolate syrup. Repeat the layers, then top with remaining broken pastry, whipped topping and syrup. Cover and chill for at least 2 hours before serving.

Tip: For extra flavor and texture, whip a pint of heavy cream and use that instead of whipped topping
